Four games. Four chances to prove the doubters wrong. The 4A playoffs start NOW with Halloween night’s slate of do-or-die matchups!

GAME 1: #6 American Falls vs #12 Bonners Ferry | Friday @ 7PM

The Badgers bring the HEAT with 34 PPG and Keenan Maas running wild (196.6 ypg, 22 TDs). But don’t sleep on the Beavers’ ball-hawking defense – 15 INTs led by dual-threat QB Zakary Grigg who does it ALL (103.6 rush ypg + 5 picks). Can American Falls’ opportunistic D slow down Bonners Ferry’s explosive offense?

GAME 2: #8 Buhl vs #9 McCall-Donnelly | Friday @ 6PM

McCall-D’s offensive juggernaut (430.2 total ypg) meets Buhl’s turnover-forcing machine (14 INTs). The Vandals’ Colt Value & Gunnar Newman combine for 226.6 rush yards per game, while Porter Higley is a PROBLEM on both sides for the Indians (42.0 rec ypg + 10.5 sacks!). Buhl’s scoring woes (0.9 PPG) are concerning, but their defense creates havoc.

GAME 3: #7 Snake River vs #10 Gooding | Friday @ 7PM

Gooding looks DOMINANT on paper (361.3 ypg), led by Cougar Stockham’s dual-threat brilliance (100.9 QB rating, 12 pass TDs, 2 INTs on defense). Snake River’s stats are incomplete, making them a complete wildcard. The Senators’ triple threat of Rio Curtis, Eli Esterbrook, and Stockham could be unstoppable.

GAME 4: #6 Weiser vs #11 Teton | Saturday @ 12PM

GROUND & POUND meets AIR RAID! Weiser’s Cole Ingle & Ty Cobb power the run game (150.6 combined rush ypg), while Teton’s Luke Nelson is a CHEAT CODE (13 rush TDs + 15 pass TDs) paired with Drew Moss (111.1 rec ypg, 9 TDs). This style clash could be the weekend’s best game!

Kendrick. Fruitland. Bishop Kelly. Ririe. Century.

Five schools. Zero losses. These teams didn’t just show up this season—they dominated. Every game, every play, every moment counted, and they’re STILL standing undefeated going into @idhsaa’s Milk Bowl Tournament

This is Idaho excellence. This is what championship mentality looks like.

1:10 left on the clock. Game scoreless. Eastern Oregon lines up for what should be the game-winning 49-yard field goal.

Dee’Shon Swafford breaks through, blocks it, scoops it up at the 49, and takes it 60 yards to the end zone. 7-0 Yotes.

But it’s not over. Eastern Oregon gets the ball back with one last chance. Mason Priddy steps up with his 2nd interception of the night to seal it.

This was a defensive clinic. The Yotes held Eastern Oregon to just 140 total yards and 10 first downs. Jacob Sisson was a problem all night with 2.5 sacks. Willie White and Tucker French dominated up front.

Offensively, Rylie Byington ground out 91 yards. Caden Young threw for 167. Jackson Ames led receivers with 3 catches for 57 yards.

College of Idaho improves to 6-1 (3-0 Frontier). Perfect in conference play. Playoff positioning locked in.

Next up: Home game in Caldwell vs Arizona Christian University. The push continues.

The Fruitland Grizzlies have CONQUERED the Snake River Valley, claiming their first conference title since 2017!  With a dominant 52-27 victory over McCall, the Grizzlies cap off a PERFECT 9-0 regular season!
